[QUOTE="Mxracer532, post: 1005501, member: 63551"] Just curious who all has had this problem. Reason I ask is a good friend and guide of mine and his buddy (x military sniper) both had problems a week or 2 ago. 1 bull elk shot with a 300 Win & 180gn VLD took 7 shots to kill at 742 yards. 1 bullet was just infront of the shoulder in the base of the neck and if hardly penetrated the hide and only bruised the meat. The bullet was sideways and looked like it was hit on the side with a hammer. Other 7 shots ranged from 2 high lung, 1 guts and last through the shoulder after watching it for over an hr. Now the X Sniper black bear alitte over 200 yards and 6.5 Creedmoor shooting 140gn VLD, busted right through the 1 shoulder for sure dropped immediately only to get back up and run down to a drainage and go up the drainage for 1.5 miles according to gps. No blood no nothing. Iam a HUGE Berger fan but these issues have me concerned. [/QUOTE]
